Python Django RestFramework route trigger -

i'am building api using python 2.7 , django 1.7 , i'm facing problem. i'm not expert in rest framework understand basic mechanisms.

i can resume problem giving example. have route lets say

/api/project/ 

django rest framework provides me basic operations route , don't need write them e.g:

post, get, put, delete => /api/project/ 

the fact is, want operation when create new project. want add id of user has created new project.

i want add kind of trigger/callback create function:

class projectviewset(viewsets.modelviewset):     queryset = project.objects.all()     serializer_class = projectserializer      def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs): 

i want keep internal behavior of rest framework (i don't want rewrite route functions), want route stuff , need request object in trigger/callback. like

def callback(request, instance):     instance.created_by = request.user     instance.save() 

do have ideas?

thank you.

you need add creator_id field serializer model represented resource. can in view:-

import copy  class projectviewset(viewsets.modelviewset):        ...        def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):           data = copy.deepcopy(request.data)           data['creator_id'] = request.user.id           request._data = data            return super(projectviewset, self).create(request, *args, **kwargs)
